I am considering an item on the RealReal site so unfortunately am left with the photos they have posted... I am curious if there is a way to determine if that color/bag actually existed for that season?

I have attached the link and can try to obtain additional specific photos- thank you in advance!

It's indeed missing some required pictures and if you can post back with those pics (see here and here) I can confirm authenticity for you, but I do not expect any issues with this bag. For future reference, pls post in the correct format outlined in post #1.

When you post back with new pictures, please make sure to either resubmit all previous info/pics, or quote your initial request/previous posts, so I have all pertinent info pertaining to your request contained in one post.

View attachment 4419234 Item name: Chanel Timeless Vintage Jumbo (I think)
Serial number: 0336142
Listing number: (eBay listing #, site listing #, or if applicable) : The bag is already purchased. I have attached a login shot.
Seller: (seller ID) N/A
Link: (link to the sellers listing in eBay or other selling site) N/A
Comments: I bought this bag a couple of years ago from a well known seller. I want to resell the bag now, but I am worried that it might be fake due to the stamp in the bag being silver, while the hardware is gold! This is a very old bag (1986-1988) but as far as I have researched, the stamp and the hardware are suppose to be the same color! PLEASE help.
I can only attach 10 pics so please let me know if you need further pics. Thank you!

Likely OK, but still would like to see an extremely up close, sharp and glare-free picture of the the sticker and card + another picture of the stamp, this time a little further away without the label being push forward.

Nothing jumps out as fake so far, but to confirm I need better pics. Forward facing picture of the stamp. Also non-angled and clear, up close and glare free pictures of the back plate, both sides of the zipper pull, and buttons on the strap.

I always prefer to see a picture of the full sticker and in this case also clear shots of both sides of the zipper pull, but I'm don't expect issues with this camera bag.

Item name: vintage double flap

Serial number: missing because lack of autentication card.

Listing number: 1 538 567

Seller: Kaplan’s (Swedish auction house)

Link: https://www.kaplans.se/sv/butiken/vara/1538567

Comments: I bought this bag earlier today and returned it quickly when I looked at it closer. I’m pretty sure it’s a fake and when I returned it I was really mad because the auction house is supposed to be a serious and trusted store. I was told that they would look into it and that the bag wouldn’t be put back on the market until they could guarantee that it’s not a fake. I returned the bag at 15.40, the store was closing at 16 so I don’t believe that they did have the time to look at the bag again and just don’t care. I already sent them a email about it but just want to be sure before I go along with “accusing” them of selling a fake... I may be wrong, I’m no expert and maybe it’s just a rare vintage bag (hoping, would be so much easier)...[View attachment 4418596View attachment 4418597ATTACH=full]4418587[/ATTACH]View attachment 4418588View attachment 4418589View attachment 4418590View attachment 4418591View attachment 4418592View attachment 4418594View attachment 4418595

And just to be clear it doesn’t have the sticker and the card is just in laminated cardboard not as the usual cards from Chanel. The bag is supposed to be from the late 80s

If based on the MADE IN PARIS only I should say that the bag is fake, but all other details look good to me (the hand stitched CC logo, leather, the zipper pull, snap buttons, CC lock and even the shape of the missing back plate). The MADE IN PARIS label looks out of place. Details show that the bag is an early vintage. Is there any CHANEL stamp that you can see (stamped directly onto the leather)?

Hello!

I recently purchased a bag at a Swedish auction. With my limited expertise I thought it looked authentic but I've come to doubt myself since I can't locate the name, or any further information, about the model. I've seen models like it being sold at The RealReal etc. but it would really be a peace of mind to know if the bag is authentic or not. If someone care to help in this matter, it would be greatly appreciated :flowers:

I don't have enough pictures to go by (see here and here for a list of all required pictures and how they need to be), but I'm not seeing any issues with the stamp.

Hi there,

I recently purchased this large Chanel Cambon. I have provided pictures below. Please let me know if you need any additional pictures or information to help you authenticate this.

On a side note- there is a small tear and the inside needs some love. Is it safe to take it to a dry cleaner?

Thank you!

Authentic.
I don't recommend you sending it to a dry cleaner. Try to contact Leather Surgeons, or Leather Pros for a quote to clean and fix your bag.
